Suppose you write your own WSDL instead of letting axis generate it. You can then include your XSDs in the types section of the WSDL. If you use absolute URLs in the schemaLocation attributes of the import statements for teh XSDs, then anybody who sees you WSDL can also find the XSDs. Does this suit your purpose?
